In this learning path, the second in a series of six on software architecture fundamentals, your hosts, Neal Ford and Mark Richards, delve deeper into the specific skills and knowledge you’ll need to become an effective, successful software architect. You’ll examine common architectural styles that you’ll need to fully understand in order to properly apply them in your designs. This learning path builds upon Architectural Thinking, the first in this series, with a detailed look at several widely used models that you’ll encounter across a broad range of industries, platforms, and frameworks.

What you’ll learn—and how you can apply it

In Part 2 of this learning path series, you’ll learn what each of the following styles are and how and when to apply them within your software designs:

Layered architecture

Microkernel architecture

Event-driven architecture

Pipeline architecture

Space-based architecture

Microservices architecture

Service-based architecture

Service-oriented architecture

Serverless architecture

LMAX

Exercises included
